Specifically, this Checklist outlines the steps for identifying time periods and triggering events, calculating forward and backward counting deadlines, and the different methods for computing time periods of different lengths (seven days or more, less than seven days, or hours). This Checklist also explains how to apply automatic extensions of time, including service-based extensions, extensions for weekends or legal holidays, and extensions granted by the chief justice of the Florida Supreme Court for public emergencies.
